More: A Memoir of Hungers

Ever since she was young, Sara Truitt has always been hungry for more. Through her feminist bat mitzvah, her fear of the "chubbette" section in the department store as a girl, her flamboyant appetite, her search for sexual companionship, her search for love, and, at last, her determination to be heard on the page, Sara Truitt chronicles how she relentlessly pursued all the things she craves in life, only to find it was never enough. In this raw, intimate look back on her life, Truitt, a psychotherapist specializing in eating disorders, uses her training to understand the root of her desires. Her journey of self-discovery is both warm and heartbreaking as she learns how to walk out of a place of fear and doubt and into one of self-acceptance and love.
